Has anyone seen or heard of Sifu Victor Parlati of tradition wing chun? I used to be his student and by the way, is there anyone out there who has something nice to say about the man?

He's the black sheep of the TWC family. I met victor years ago and he rubbed me the wrong way ... many many times. If it weren't for his arrogance, he could be a very nice guy. I also have to admire him for staying with his teacher despite all the adversity in their organization. - Ken

I'm a member of WWCKFA and wanted to resume my training with Sifu Parlati but I felt uneasy about his class.

One good thing if you can ignore his seemingly rough exterior and attitude, is his commitment to WC. He also added to the style; including in it tonfa, knife and ground defense training.

Personally, I plan to go to him for private lessons to get my remaining forms, Biu Jee, 108 Wooden Dummy, and a refresher on the Advance Siu Lim Tao.

I take a Universal Stance regarding the Martial Arts.
